A correspondent of the Forest and
Stream has the following fling at
Bruin: Il always looked upon bears
as enemies of civilization. We, | and
others, destroyed them by whatever
means we could employ to do so. We
canvassed all our resources to circum-
vent their cunning, and that they are
possessed of large degree of cunning
no one who has hunted them will deny.
When boy Of sixteen years, in 1914
and '45, spent year at the mouth of
the Arkansas River The country
thereabout, at that early period, was
almost terra iHcognitd, and game,
deer, turkeys, ducks. etc. were abund
ant. Our stock. hogs especially. suf
fered from the inroad5 made by the
bears. Our members from Africa put
out spring guns at the crossings where
the bears came from the canebrakes 70
the cornfelds, and also set traps for
them in the vicinity of the quarters.
We didn't want the meat. we didn't
want the sport, but We did want to
kill the pesky, cowardly bears. Our
members from Africa took great pleas
ure in finding a good fat bear in trap
or killed by spring gun, and they
were sure TO get FIVE dollar gold piece
for each and every bear they killed
We never considered them game and
did not hunt them as such. They are

TROUT FISHING IN CALIFORNIA.
The following extract from the cor
respondence of a trout fisher in Cali
fornia is of interest:
The third day out was devoted to
fishing, and we undertook to settle
the question as to whether the best re-
suits are Obtainable with natural grass
hoppers or artificial flies. The fly
champion undertook to catch as many
fish as two grasshOpper users. At $50
we started up the creek. Where will
lows hugged the water we waded.
Anything for good cast and big
string. At 1880 we halted for lunch
Western cyclone., 1887-10-28

with just 100 fish. OF these 67 were cred
tied to the fly and 33 to the grasshop-
pers. 1t is needless to say that those
who had been tempted to renOunce the
the feathery bait threw away the hop
perS and returned to orthodox princi-
p eS. These 100 trout were put in
-four sack and were more than any of
us cared to shoulder; so one returned
for pack horse and the others fished
down to camp. The best results for
the day were obtained by Mr.. Geo. B.
BrastOW, of Salt Lake, who, with
Leonard split bamboo rod and three
fly leader, landed 1873 fine trout. His
favorite flies were the grizzly king,
brown -hackle, and royal -cOachman.
The yellow bodied gray-hackle did
good work in the morning but seemed
worthless after ? o'clock

"ThOse who prefer few large fish to
a basketful of fingerlings look to the
Oregon streams now rather than to
those of California. OF course every
s 9rtSn in this State is not yet spoiled,
by any means, and the general scarcity
of fish referred to may be perhaps con-
sidered comparative. Still, we do not
have the sport we used to, and have to
go much greater distances than for
merly. This is to be expected, of
course, in a country rapidly settling
up, as this is. However, fishing out
of season and with giant powder are
things that can be prevented if proper
effort is made"
